Houweling's Group has announced COO Kevin Doran has been appointed to the additional role of President for the Houweling’s Group of Companies. Doran joined Houweling’s as COO in late 2014, and has been instrumental in the transition of the company to a vertically integrated grower and direct to market business, according to a press release.
“In reviewing how to best position the business for generational success, the path was clear. Kevin’s impact in a little over a year at Houweling’s, his background as Managing Director of Greenery UK Ltd and a number of other The Greenery BV business units in Europe, made him the right person to take the reigns as President. Additionally, it enables me to focus on areas of the business I am most passionate about: the growing, and continued development and adoption of innovative, sustainable technologies,” said Casey Houweling, CEO and corporate grower for the company.
